The City of Roswell is partnering with Gas South to offer residents and businesses discounted rates on natural gas service. Through the program, residents are eligible to receive a special discount of two cents per therm off all of Gas South's standard rates – when they either sign up with Gas South or register their existing accounts – for as long as they remain customers. No City tax dollars are used in this Gas South offer.

Special, customized rates also are available from Gas South for mid-size and large commercial customers in Roswell. Residents or businesses can sign up or register their existing accounts to receive the City of Roswell discount by calling Gas South at 1-866-563-8129, or by visiting www.gassouth.com/roswell.

"Roswell is recognized as one of the most livable and family-oriented cities in America, with innovative city leaders who have worked to make it a great place to live, work and play," said Kevin Greiner, CEO of Gas South. "As a hometown Georgia company, Gas South is proud to partner with the City of Roswell to offer these special discounted rates on natural gas."

Greiner said the partnership will benefit local residents and businesses, helping them stretch their utility dollars by getting optimal pricing. The partnership will also benefit the City of Roswell, which will receive funding from Gas South for each city resident and business that receives service from the company.

The partnership relationship is similar to several others that Gas South has formed with municipalities and electric membership corporations (EMCs) in Georgia to offer preferred natural gas rates. In addition to the City of Roswell, Gas South has similar programs with the cities of Acworth, College Park, Kennesaw, Marietta, Norcross and Woodstock, as well as with Central Georgia EMC, Cobb EMC, Greystone Power Corporation, Snapping Shoals EMC, Upson EMC and Washington EMC.
